Are there other comments? Seeing none, I'm going to put the question.
(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])
Then we move to amendment NDP-2. I'm ruling it out of order. It's inadmissible because it goes beyond the scope of the bill.
Let me read my ruling first. It's inadmissible because there is already a hierarchy link between the Chief of the Defence Staff—in clause 4 here, in proposed subsection 18.5(1), it talks about how “The Provost Marshal acts under the general supervision of the Vice Chief of the Defence Staff”.
Here in the amendment you're making, it also links in the independence by providing guidance to the Military Police Complaints Commission, so I'm ruling this one inadmissible.
